Patient Participation Group

We have Patient Participation Groups (PPG) at both branches of our practice. This is a great opportunity to become involved in local health issues, which affect you. We want patients to support us with ideas and suggestions to help us provide the health care you need.

What does a patient participation group do?

We believe that the patient participation group is invaluable in acting as a main interface between patients and the practice, working proactively to improve services. It can:

Improve communications between practice and patients, to promote a clearer understanding from both sides.

Be a forum to feedback to the practice suggestions for improvement to the services provided to the patients, to the organisation and to building and surrounds.

Work with the practice to set up a volunteer network, fundraising events and self-help groups.

If you are interested in joining our Patient Participation Groups at either branch, please ask at reception for a form, or email:
